(Impact Subs: Jaydev Unadkat, Abhinav Manohar, Sachin Baby, Atharva Taide, Wiaan Mulder) Must-Picks Players for MI vs SRH Top Wicketkeeper to Pick Ryan Rickelton | MI: Rickelton has been scoring good runs for his team, but he is yet to click that big. In 6 matches so far, he has scored 149 runs, including a 41-run knock that came against DC in the last match, and hence, he should make a cut in your fantasy side. Heinrich Klaasen | SRH: The 33-year-old wicketkeeper has batted in 6 innings this season and has only scored 173 runs with an average of 34.60. He was the first retention of SRH for IPL 2025, but he is yet to play a memorable knock this season. He will be itching to play some big knocks going forward in the tournament. Top Batters to Pick Tilak Varma | MI: Tilak has been the most consistent batter for the Mumbai Indians in this season, having scored 210 runs in 5 innings, including two half-centuries in the last two matches. The batter scored 56 runs against RCB and then scored 59 runs in the last match against DC. He is a must-have player in your fantasy team for this game. Travis Head | SRH: Travis Head has started showing glimpses of his form; he played a brilliant half-century knock against PBKS in the last match, where he added 66 runs from 37 balls. He will look to add more runs here in this match.

So far in this season, Hardik Pandya has scored 83 runs in 4 matches and has taken 10 wickets in 5 innings. With the surface being extremely batting-friendly, Hardik is likely to deliver with the bat as well. Abhishek Sharma | SRH: The explosive left-handed batter and a handy bowler is another all-rounder who makes a cut in our fantasy team. Abhishek Sharma played a monstrous century knock against PBKS and won that game single-handedly. He will look to continue his form in Mumbai as well.
